CHICKEN ENCHILADA CASSEROLE 
1 c. chopped onion
1/2 c. chopped green pepper
2 tbsp. butter
2 c. chopped, cooked chicken
1 (4 oz.) can green chili peppers
3 tbsp. butter

In a large saucepan cook onion and green pepper in the 2 tablespoons butter until tender. Combine onion, mixture in a bowl with chopped chicken and green chili peppers, set aside.

For sauce, in the same saucepan, melt 3 tablespoons butter. Stir in flour, coriander and salt. Stir in chicken broth all at once. Cook and stir until thickened and bubbly. Cook and stir 1 to 2 minutes more. Remove from heat, stir in sour cream and 1/2 cup of the cheese. Stir 1/2 cup of the sauce into chicken mixture.
